I finally finished and just pushed the "launch" button!

You can see my work here:

The Friar's Delight Kickstarter

I drew a card to see if I should just go or wait and I picked this one:

I took it as a YES!

So the ship has sailed ! I wish her a pleasant journey. And a successful arrival on the other side of the sea.

Thanks so much!

Not off to a bad start the first day, but I think a lenny deck is a little trickier to move then a tarot deck.

Can I ask a favour of anybody who is in facebook cartomancy groups to please share this kickstarter url:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cu ... lenormand

or the short version
http://bit.ly/FriarsDelight

Not being on facebook is a disadvantage when you really want to reach a certain audience, but I never was and I have reasons I don't want to be. So if anybody could please share I'd appreciate it immensely. πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€

I love it! Great job, @Joan Marie :)
I've backed it and just shared it over on the Tarot, Tea & Me forum. I don't do facebook either, so apologies but I cannot share it there.
Wishing you all the best in your Kickstarter!

Just shared it on facebook in the for love of cards group. I'm really hoping it gets funded and I don't do lennies.

I also backed the deck, fingers crossed it gets funded, I really do think the aesthetic is fun and unique, and I'm not a lennie reader nor buyer.

I don't do Lenormand either. I have one though and have never thought of parting with it. I thought I'd explore it with Joan Marie's deck. I also find the Friar's Delight aesthetic fun and unique like you and the historical period is fascinating. Even the name is wonderful. Everything fits so well with what I understand to be a Lenormand. I didn't back the deck just to be nice to Joan Marie. I really believe it's of worth.

I must say that I am rather perplexed to see that it hasn't received the rapid backing I was expecting. It's puzzling.

Kickstarter itself is puzzling. Some decks where I'm just thinking no, get backed quickly, others that I find unique and definitely worth it don't. I will keep sharing it.

Something worked!
Thanks so much everybody. Everyone was so supportive and encouraging and had really good advice all along the way.

Now that this has succeeded I have a lot of work to do but that's the fun part. Waiting out a kickstarter that isn't catching fire the way you'd like it to, takes a bit of a toll and is not the fun part.

But I learn so much all the time.

I will be getting very busy now with some forum things, especially our group deck.

Thanks everybody for everything. September will be amazing! 🍁

Yay!!!!! Sometimes giving birth to a baby is not a piece of cake. But baby has arrived and I welcome warmly The Friar's Delight into the colourful and magical world of divination. May it have a long and fruitful life.

NOW LET'S PARTY !!!!!!!!!

Just received news that the Friar's Delight will be shipped out within the next few days. Youhou!!! For a change the postman won't be bringing boring old invoices to pay.

Doing a happy little jig here.
